Since the purchase of the Baltimore 6
Ohio telegraph by the Western Union
company, the New York Herald has been
trying to create public sentiment favor
able to government telegraphy. 1t does
not propose that the government pur,
chase the Western Union lines or that it
assume their regulation, but that it con-
struct and operate lines of its own, the
cost of which shall be borne BY the peo-
pie, and thus render worthless the West
ern Union property. The proprietor of
the Herald bears very deep hatred of
Jay Gould. and in fact has been and is
now the hall owner of an opposition en-
terprlse in ocean telegraphy. 1t is there,
fore a fair surmlse tsat the Herald's
course is dictated by personal feeling
rather than by patriotism. 1t is safe to
say that the Herald would resent with in
dlguation proposition that the govern
meDts OF the United States and Great
Britain should combine and organize an
opposition to Its cable at the cost of their
respective treasures, thus practically
conoscatine every cent Mr.. Bennett has
invested. Yet there is as much call for
government interference in one case as in
the other.
The Heralds complaint is not that the
Western Unions rates are too HIGH but
that they are too low. 1t instances this
as proof of Jay Gould's determination
That an opposition company to Western
Union shall not be permitted to exist
1t therefore wants the government to
embark in an enterprise that has been
iouud nnremunerative for private CAPT.

WHEN Alaska was purchased for 81,

drew johnson, il was generally supposed
that We had bought barren land.
Twenty years of possession have not
brought us Ms accurate information cons
corning our new acquisition as we might
have expected in that time, but we know
enough to assure us that we made good
bargain with Russia During the last
three or four years astonishing discover
les have been made in Alaska by govern
ment exploring parties and by private
enterprise. The fisheries are far more
valuable than had been supposed. Al.
ready large business has been built up
in canning fish. Fortunes have been
made in furs and the prospects of that
business are excellent. But the mineral
resources of Alaska constitute its chief
attraction. Iron Of fine grade and coal
in vast abundanc, are found. OF course
there are grest quantities of petroleum.
Just enough prospecting has been done
to show that the co-ntry is very rich in
mineral deposits. At present gold fever
